Rep. Michael McMahon voted for the budget-busting, failed stimulus bill that promised 8,000 jobs for this district but delivered only a hundred.

That, combined with Scott Brown’s election in Massachusetts, has him, like Democrats throughout the country, running for cover.

In his race to become a Republican overnight, McMahon’s called for an extension of the Bush tax cuts, because this would “create jobs, lower the deficit and lower taxes.”

Now he gets it?

Instead of concentrating on jobs and the economy from Day One, Dems wasted a full year —half of McMahon’s first term — on stimulus and unwanted health reform, only to finally wake up and realize that voters didn’t take kindly to being force-fed this radical agenda.

Will McMahon’s fellow Dems want to have their names associated with tax cuts, which for eight years were falsely portrayed as benefiting only the rich?

This reeks of political opportunism.

This tax cut Mike’s pushing smells like an attempt to bribe his constituents; Dems are getting good at bribes.

We are not buying it. VOTERS are setting the agenda in this country and CHANGE is being delivered by the PEOPLE, not politicians who decide to shift gears when the heat is on.
